I teared up! I cannot believe I did my first tubular cast on! I feel like a true knitter now! Thank you so much for this tutorial.

[@StarfireReborn]

Very Useful. This Is One Of Those Things I've Never Grasped. I'm Hopeful Now! 😅💞
Can I Just Say, I Also Love That Yarn Color. Bold & Bright!

[@greenpurl8482]

You have a way of making everything easier to understand! Thanks for this.

[@sonfederman8212]

Your explanations are so clear it’s a pleasure. Thank you so much.

[@hebulanebula]

After the set up rows of the tubular cast on, how do you incorporate a 3 stitch I-cord edging....for a cardigan neckband ? Do you have a tutorial for this scenario please?!🧶💫 thank you

[@latitude1904]

Now, since we have a disjointed break in our in-the-round work, we need to know how to join that with our tail so that it doesn't show

[@philw9102]

This is the best demonstration I've seen! Thank you.

[@tinkerpro]

Steven, Thank you so much for this tutorial!!!! I always had trouble with the the tubular cast on!

[@FoxesBlogKnits]

Officially in my mind as the swoop cast on 🥰 so helpful! Thank you!

[@TwistedStitchesShow]

Ahh seems so much easier now that I’ve watched this. Thanks bunches!

[@violetshade8205]

I tried about 6 different videos before it clicked with yours. Very happy to find clear directions without fiddling with a crochet hook or scrap yarn. Many thanks!

[@adeleolendermark1788]

Hi there, do we have to end with a purl stitch? My hat pattern calls for 56 stitches so ending with a purl stitch would throw this off…

[@BetsWeidemann]

Thanks

You're very welcome!

Thank you for this fantastic video! I am using the tubular cast on for a pair of finger-less mitts, but normally when I join in the round, I add an extra stitch to avoid the little jog. In the video, I see that we are supposed to end with a "purl" stitch. Can I cast on one more stitch after the "purl" stitch for my join and if I do, what about when I flip the needle around for the first set up row. Would I just knot into the back of the first two stitches? Will the "extra" stitch not work in this situation? Thank you so much!

[@Bethabara9]

I could see me casting on 300 stitches and zoning out about halfway and going into regular long tail cast on mode. 😂

[@Missmoneypenny7]

I played with it and instead of only four set up rows, I did. the whole ribbing like this. I turned out so good, I will keep doing it for further project

[@99rockaholic]

thank you!! your explanation is very clear and i can see your hands movement very well❤

[@eimiwingate]

It would have been helpful to include demonstrating joining in the round with the tubular cast on.

[@KKnits]

Love your clear directions! You also make directions fun, and easy to follow along with you. Thank you!

[@suzeweaver4937]

Very nice video. Please, a slow motion version…!

[@emiliabarbosa8835]

Thank you, this is just what i needed ❤❤❤ happy holidays

[@cathkat3993]

Can this technique be used for a 2x2 rib?

[@theislandlamb]

Next I’d like to see how you join those flat rows to knit in the round. Seems like it would avoid the nightmare of having twisted the cast on row!

[@lesleyoliver3310]

I believe Stephen shows how to knit in the round at 7.11.

[@latitude1904]

​@@lesleyoliver3310It's not the knitting in the round that's the trouble. It's the disjointed bit remaking after joining that must - somehow- be fixed with the yarn tail. And to get it invisible is no small feat

[@lesleyoliver3310]

@@latitude1904 ah ha I didn’t realise that was your query. Have you taken a look at his tips section? Lots of troubleshooting information there.

[@latitude1904]

@@yveslefevre8905 I'm sorry - we use different terminology in the U.S. so I fail to understand

[@jennyleisure6525]

This was fantastic!! Thank you so much for providing such wonderful tutorials!! 🩷
